THE old SANDER that women have no capacity
for business is rapidly being dissipated by facts
which prove the contrary. Take the of
Miss Powers, of Salem, Mass. for instance. 1t
was announced in the society columns of the local
papers that Miss Powers was engaged to be mar
ried to Mr.. Sanderson. It was subsequently,
stated that this was mistake, and tina she was
to marry Mr.. Wiley. Mr.. Sanderson went to
see her about this. and she denied Indignantly
that there any truth in the report, and said
she was true to him. Sanderson being imam

eral sum for the purchase of his intended brides

outfit with this money. and fixed a day for the
wedding. On the day preceding the one set,
however, she took the clothes furnished by San
derson and went away and married Wiley. So
ciety circles of Salem all torn up over the
matter, and show their prejudice against women

everyday commercial transaction or, more pro-
perly, speculation, in which one of the parties,

Condition of the Atlanta.

New YORK, July 27.-A Herald's special
from Newport says the board appointed
by the Secretary to inspect the Atlanta
met on board the vessel Monday and An
official report will be made in few days.
The result of the labors OF the board SUM-
married. are: The ship at present is prac-
tically useless. Her structure appears to
be strong and far from weakness; but her
arma ment hors du combat; the deck Of the
vessel remains intact; the gun carriages.
clip circle. and clips will have to be repaired
before further tests cali be made. This
portion of the fittings of the vessel was
evidently not intended to retard the recoil
of the guns. The damage done was
in excess of what was reported. It is
manifest from the location of the six-inch
guns that if the eight.inch guns were in
perfect order the six-inch guns would be
idle and it would be impossible to work
both guns at the same time. The smaller
secondary battery is also useless while
either the eight or six inch guns are being
fired. The result is that the Atlanta, as
it's armament is now arranged. is abso-
lutely worthless as the discharge OF the
heavy powdered guns are likely to be fol-
lowed by injury to the vessel.
